    I love that he was coaching you hard today. Never helpful when an instructor takes it easy on you. Great job digging in and working hard!

    Started skiing late this winter and just started getting to carving at around 10 days in and man it's a very nice feeling when you get it right.

    Kudos to the camera work on these videos! It's really impressive the way they can follow the subject and keep them in frame at such high speed!

    You completely missed his #1 issue. He is not increasing the bend of his old DH leg in transition, especially at the end of his left turn (right DH leg) He is maintaining a consistent strong slight leg bend. Tall in the carve, short in transition. He is not doing a low transition. It is pretty impossible to carve at a high level without doing a proper low transition. At the transition point, you should look like you are sitting in a chair....both legs at 90 degrees. That is how every top FIS skier does it. A lot of these problems are coming from the up and down transition. Also, a low transition is SO MUCH faster that it makes controlling speed on steep pitches much easier. #2 issue is lack of inside ski sensitivity/feel/control.

    I needed this video one week ago, I just got back from Austria where I desperately tried to improve my carving on my own.

    To not get outward rotation in your hips and that "facing the valley" position try pushing forward your arm at the end of the turn ,in the same motion like you are trying to push down a slalom gate! Best tip i got from race camps to increase your outside ski edge pressure as well

    • @gerylagrande

      @@oldskier3019 yeah you are right when it comes to short turns, but here he skis long GS turns. In that kind of radius you start that very subtle upper body rotation in the direction of the turn i was talking about right at the apex, to get the maximum edge grip. Till the apex you have parallel body axis and very little upper body or arm rotation just the body inclination and only the head facing down the hill into the turn.
      Watch slowmotions of training runs from Ted Lighety and watch espescially his upper body in a GS radius
      ( in my opinion Ted has the most aesthetically pleasing ski technique of all time) I'm aware that there are many opinions about the discussion subject of upper body movements. For example the japanese have a totally different aproach to inclination and rotation. So i'm glad we are some ski nerds here to discuss minor positon tweaks to get maximum performance.

    I'm feeling like this is an advanced lesson. I've focused on short quick turns for moguls and trees for a couple of decades. Until this last ski season. My new Tahoe friends, who I'm largely able to keep up with, are certainly a level above me. I've been told I need to actually carve those moguls. I understand to a degree, but I need a drill. How do I integrate carving with short turns & moguls? I will start doing the Hour Glass drill next season. Didn't see that video until returning from Mammoth. Great video really love your unique ski teaching styles!
    PS-never mind I found the Live Coaching Short Turn video. Onto the next lesson. I'm so psyched for next ski season already!

    You need a counter rotation at the end of the turn to close the turn and deal with the forces

    • @connorp8408
      @connorp8408 Рік тому

      This was always my thought (though I tend to over emphasize the counter rotation). It might be a Carey over from GS racing but I will tend to rotate the upper body towards the ski more. In my mind, it helps keep pressure on the outside ski, keeps the upper body more painting down the hill (kind of) and helps me clear the I visible GS gate out of the way

  • @OKuusava
    @OKuusava 8 місяців тому +2

    Sure hard to learn out all the older teachings. All body tilting to turn and rotational turns and more upright upper body was always a nono. That last: upper body tilting forward was in this case perhaps as the pupil has so much more upright boots than teacher, that to get same point of pressure have to be more forward.

    Good video, good improvement in the end! Thank you! Shorter poles and a more stable upper body might help! Try a couple. btw, x9 ski is good 😊

    After putting all that effort into angulation and seperation to get that right...
    Now I've got to change it back again and let my shoulders follow the skis down the hill.
    I think this is only for wide fast carves though.
    (We don't have that much room in Hemel Hempstead Fridge, so I'll keep working on the short turns angulation)
    You had a great time anyway.

  • @rosbifsa660

    I try to teach matching the ski tips - what you need to do is pull the uphill ski tip back in line with the downhill - this is a good indicator of being lined up...
    Another idea is to carve using your floppy back country skis (and not race carvers), on a flatter piste and slower. This really forces you to concentrate on the technique without relying on speed and equipment.

    So confused - watching some of these vids as off to Alps in March & trying tp remind myself what skiing looks like again. As a middle level intermediate ive spent countless hours being drilled to keep the shoulders looking down the Hill and try and get that feeling of separation 🤔 and apparently that wrong 🤔

    eh … this is all instruction that is based on the visual output alone which does not take what is actually happening into account such as ski to snow interaction output that is based on a number of things that cannot be covered by the visual output alone. I think this instructor would be much better focused by teaching this student how to pole plant. Because the student’s ability to carve a turn has developed so far beyond a working pole plant, he is plateaued where he is.

    This guy cannot control his speed...and rushes the turn.

    • @shooter7a
      @shooter7a Рік тому

      That is because his transition is tall and tall is slow from ski to ski. That makes it impossible to control your speed because it takes so long for the ski to take a new edge.

    I have to say you should have been told to slow the hell down and have a good look at your form. you were at times too fast over your ability.
